The book was published on 26 march 2015, still new, I don/t know how many copiess I sold. For the mothers day in Italy I put it free and I got first position, after that I kept good position on Amazon classment, I cannot be more precise. But since my husband's job is in France since 20 years, I know more people in France then in Italy (I attend bookclubs, 3 friends are writers).

“Mi chiamo Carlotta e vivo con un nodo in gola.
Ho sedici anni, mi sento sola perché sono diversa da tutte le persone che mi circondano, e questo non mi piace. Non appartengo a nessun luogo. Ho abitato in Africa per cinquemilasettecentosessantaquattro giorni (5764!), per me l’Italia significava solo che la scuola era finita e nonni e cugini mi aspettavano per le vacanze. Ho trascorso un’infanzia felice, la prima volta che ho visto la neve ̶ ero in Kenia ̶ avevo nove anni: era bianca come le nuvole. A nessuno importa come mi sento io dentro, cosa penso e cosa vorrei."

Author review: Hello! I asked someone to read Nilma Campagnaro translation and I am very satisfied of her work. She respects the timeliness, and it was very easy to communicate each others. Now we'll work together for the marketing of the book. Excellent work! |
